Abstract:

研究显示，对过度肥胖者的偏见与行为免疫系统的激活有关。以内隐联想测验为基础，考察洗手这一疾病预防措施对内隐肥胖偏见的影响。结果显示，与控制组相比，洗手显著减少了被试的内隐肥胖偏见，且这一效应没有受到被试自身体重的影响。结果还显示，洗手所带来的这一效应由洗手对肥胖—疾病内隐联结的影响所中介。这些结果提示，通过提供公共卫生干预措施的方式，或可有效减少人们对肥胖者的偏见。
Previous studies have shown that the obesity sigma is linked with the activation of the behavioral immune system. Based on the IAT tests, we tested whether the experience of a modern form of dis-ease protection (hand washing) can reduce the implicit anti-fat bias. Results showed that, compared with the control group, participants significantly reduced their implicit anti-fat bias after hand washing, and such effect was irrevelant to participants’ own body weight. The results also revealed that the hand washing effect was fully mediated by the implicit obesity-disease asscociations. These results suggest that it may be an effective approach to reduce the obesity sigma by providing public health interventions.
